Poyke at Haifa's Beach in Israel

Come experience a typical Israeli outdoors dinner at the beach with an unforgettable sunset.

Poike or potjiekos, literally translated "small pot food", is a stew prepared outdoors. It is traditionally cooked in a round, cast iron, three-legged pot, the potjie, brought from the Netherlands to South Africa in the 17th century and found in the homes and villages of people throughout southern Africa. The pot is heated using small amounts of wood or charcoal or, if fuel is scarce, twisted grass or even dried animal dung. I'm not sure when or why but it became very popular among Israeli campers.

We'll meet after lunch for shopping (optional, you can see the city and we can meet after I shopped but some people like to be a part of the process too). After cutting the necessary vegetables we'll leave to the beach and start the bonfire where we will cook along the sunset and after a good couple of hour enjoy our freshly cooked poike!
